摘要: This special issue of the journal consists of articles based on talks by some of the invited speakers at the Fourth Chinese International Conference on Eye Movements held in Tianjin in May 2010. Prior meetings of CICEM were held in Tianjin in 2004 and 2006 and in Zhuhai in 2008. Each succeeding conference has drawn a larger group of participants from China and other places in the world, and CICEM4 was a very successful meeting. At each of the prior meetings, a select group of foreign speakers were invited to present their latest research at CICEM and this was also true of CICEM4. More importantly, the number of Chinese presenters has increased with each successive meeting. The goal is to hold CICEM every other year and in alternate years to the European Conference on Eye Movements(ECEM).
